What Causes Burning Sensation And Bumps In The Vagina?

Hi, I m in a relationship and give with my significant other. I m very sexually active, and we have sex daily. Lately, the opening of my vagina has felt sort of rough. I asked around a heard it was normal. I thought it might be from washing too hard/too much or from having sex a lot. I had a pap smear abut 5 months ago and got everything checked out. I just checked it myself and it seems like right at the opening of my vagina on the left side, theres roughness and its kind of bumpy. it looks like it could be related to having a lot of sex or maybe a yeas infection but I m not totally sure. It burns a little and it just recently showed up like a day or two ago. It doesn t hurt when I have sex.

Hi,

We will try to help you in the best way possible. First of all, it's sad to know what you had been going through lately.

Based on the history you have shared, it can be due to intercourse related trauma however other causes like fungal infections or sexually transmitted diseases should be ruled out.

STD screen and cultures swabs may be sent. Treatment would depend on the cause however lubricants may be used for intercourse to avoid friction related worsening of the lesion.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
